British grandmother to die for hauling 4.7 kilos of cocaine to Bali
(01-22 14:07)
An Indonesian court sentenced a 56-year-old British grandmother from Yorkshire to death for drug smuggling on the resort island of Bali. She was arrested in May last year with 4.7 kilos of cocaine in her luggage.
“We found Lindsay Sandiford convincingly and legally guilty for importing narcotics... and sentenced the defendant to death,'' judge Amser Simanjuntak told Denpasar district court. Prosecutors had earlier recommended a 15-year jail sentence, AFP reports.
Sandiford was among four British nationals arrested in Bali for drugs.
